ASL1.CU1 Students develop an awareness of perspectives, practices, and products of the cultures where the target language is used. Students will:
A. Demonstrate knowledge of contributions of target culture to civilization (e.g., technology; art; theater and plays; sign language/deaf literature, media, games and jewelry).
ASL1.CCC1 Students use information acquired in the study of the target language and information acquired in other subject areas to reinforce one another. Students will:
B. Apply previously learned skills from other subjects, when appropriate to demonstrate knowledge in the target language (e.g., practice math fact drills; English/ASL grammar; famous deaf people; receptive fingerspelling).
C. Relate content from other subject areas to topics discussed in the language class (e.g., literature by or for deaf people; appearance of deaf characters in TV drama; sports; sign for and from other countries).
